ok on batman arkham city ya can't play through new game plus but once, which completely sucks and ruins the replay value.. my first idea was to beat the game and copy it to a usb device and just re-add the save whenever i wanted to play through it again, but problem with that is for some reason my usb won't work on my ps3... so i came up with a new idea, what if i created another account on my ps3 then copied the save to it? sure i wouldn't be able to use the save on that account but i would be able to use this account to copy the save back onto my original account and use this method as a means to keep playing through new game plus whenever i wanted right? before i try this i wanna be absolutely sure it will work or else i'm screwed.. somebody tell me if this will work???

How would you copy anything without a USB? your talking about transferring a save game without a USB.

yes, ok here's what i'm thinking, on you're ps3 u can create seperate accounts, u can then copy a save from one account to another, u just can't use that save on the other account, however, maybe u could use that seperate account to store the save, then when u wanted to play through new game plus again u could delete the existing one from you're main account, log onto you're other one, copy it back to the main one, log back on to it, then play through the game again! i dunno why nobody else has thought of this because surely it would work, i think.. i hope.. anyways it might, it might not.. do you think this would work? ever tried anything like this?

Ok whilst I do have multiple accounts, I've never tried that mainly because I haven't needed to, I have terabytes of storage laying around so I can create a few backups if need be, also USB drives are so cheap now, 8GB for like $20.

Might wanna try that again when you have to update a game, I had a minor problem with LBP not accepting a new version game save to a older version of LBP.
